    Abstract: Off channel scanning on workgroup bridge (WGB) devices for fast roaming may be provided. First, it may be determined, by a first WGB, that a second WGB is not off-channel. The second WGB may be peered with the first WGB. Next, the first WGB may perform channel scanning in response to determining that the second WGB is not off-channel. The first WGB may then prioritize a first WGB channel list based on results from the channel scanning performed by the first WGB. Next, the first WGB may roam while the second WGB in not off-channel, from a first access point to a second access point on a channel with the highest priority in the first WGB channel list.

    Abstract: According to one aspect, a control entity (such as a policy server) in communication with a plurality of border routers in a network, generates failover entries for one or more traffic flows. Each failover entry specifies a backup path to be used by a border router when the border router determines that a wide area network interface of the border router has failed. The control entity sends the failover entries to each of the border routers. A border router operating in a network stores failover entries for one or more traffic flows. For packets received at the border router either from a local area network interface or via a tunnel from another border router, when the border router detects that the wide area network interface has failed, the border router determines how to handle the packets based on the stored failover entries.

    Abstract: A method in which a plurality of transmit signals are generated at data rates that are offset from each other by inserting an idle data block into a data stream for one or more transmit signals of the plurality of transmit signals to increase a data rate for the one or more transmit signals, thereby minimizing detectable electromagnetic interference at a particular frequency. The method further includes converting each transmit signal of the plurality of transmit signals to a corresponding optical transmit signal of a plurality of optical transmit signals for transmission via a corresponding channel of a plurality of channels of an optical network device and transmitting the plurality of optical transmit signals via respective ones of the plurality of channels for transmission on respective optical fibers.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a wireless access point receives, from a mobile system, a broadcast beacon that includes a roaming notification indicating that the mobile system intends to roam to the wireless access point. The wireless access point allocates, after receiving the broadcast beacon from the mobile system, an orthogonal frequency-division multiple access resource unit for use by the mobile system. The wireless access point sends a trigger message to the mobile system that includes an indication of the orthogonal frequency-division multiple access resource unit. The wireless access point performs, after sending the trigger message, a handoff exchange with the mobile system using the orthogonal frequency-division multiple access resource unit to attach the mobile system to the wireless access point.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a first wireless bridge device configured to transmit signals to and receive signals from wireless network access points located along a pathway, and a second wireless bridge device configured to transmit signals to and receive signals from the wireless network access points. The first wireless bridge device and the second wireless bridge device are coupled to and communicate with each other. When the first wireless bridge device is wirelessly connected to a first access point and about to initiate a roaming mode to attempt to wirelessly connect to a second access point, the first wireless bridge device notifies the second wireless bridge device of the initiating of the roaming mode and determines whether the second wireless bridge device is in the roaming mode while the apparatus is moving along the pathway.

    Abstract: A tunnel endpoint of a virtual network monitors the flows between the tunnel endpoint and at least one other tunnel endpoint. The virtual network spans a physical network. A flow identifier for each flow is determined based on packet headers of packets in each respective flow. A path identifier for each flow is also determined based on the packet headers of the packets in each respective flow. Each path identifier indicates a route that the respective flow takes in the physical network to reach the respective destination tunnel endpoint. The path identifier and the flow identifier of the respective flows are then transmitted to a controller of the virtual network.
